Those are some great pumpkin carvings. I can't believe its October 10th already - being 95 degrees outside doesn't exactly make it feel Halloween either though. I guess its hard to get in the Halloween mood. And the television isn't exactly showing the marathons that I'd hoped for. Though I keep seeing commercials for Saw 4. Guess who I saw the first Saw movie with?

Going to one on Saturday. And, actually, Brian's end-of-summer cookout last month was one, but I didn't dress up. So that's two for me! I'm not a huge fan of dressing up for Halloween, so I usually just wear a novelty t-shirt, like the "I'M WITH CREEPY" arrow shirt I wore to Brian's. On Saturday I will be wearing a quick-and-easy staked vampire costume my wife bought me. I think she just got sick of being labeled "CREEPY" when we went to these things together.

Not sure what I want to do yet, but I generally go for something ghastly. For Halloween night itself, My roommate usually dresses as something innocent and/or beautiful, and when the doorbell rings, she'll answer it.

Then I'll step around the door with the bowl of candy, hoping to scare the bejeezus out of the kid or kids. We always get a warm fuzzy of appreciation from the parents on the sidewalk that are laughing their arses off as their children shriek in terror.

Oooooooo...When do we get to tell each other ghost stories? *bounce* *bounce*

Since I don't have time to do a costume this year, I may indulge in some pumpkin carving. I have to do SOMETHING for my favorite holiday. Too bad there aren't any kids in my neighborhood. No tricks, no treats. Sigh.
